Galen, I appreciate your replies! I actually visited htmlgoodies to try and
find a solution there. The problem is the version of internet explorer, I
know I have the code right. It works perfectly on computers with older
versions of IE, but on computers with IE version 6.0.29 it simply doesn't
open full screen, and I'm looking for some kind of fix for this specific
version, a patch, a line of code or whatever.
any thoughts on this?
